* McCoy has completed playing the top 100 twice, including the unreal feat of doing it again in 100 consecutive days in 1997.

** Thompson was a lawyer who represented many golf organizations. He flew his own plane to many courses he played in the U.S.

*** An especially difficult feat for a female golfer given how hard Garden City and The Golf Club are to access

**** Rod actually played all the courses that have ever hosted major championships including the US Open, US Amateur, PGA Championships, Masters, British Open, British Amateur and plus the US venues for the Ryder Cup and Walker Cup

***** Ralph Kennedy of New York gets an honorable mention as he played 3,000 courses between 1910-1952 around the world including many of the world's best. Although there was no ranked list at the time, we give him credit. The original golf fanatic!
